Middle Earth Battlefield

My brother got me these really cool chess pieces based on the characters of JRR Tolkiens Lord of the Rings. So of course I had to make a chess board worthy of the pieces. Made of ebony and curly maple on a red oak substrate. The bottom has felt glued to it. It also folds in half to be in a case. (Project for a later date) As with most of my recent projects, this one is sans power tools.

Thanks guys. To be honest, I started the board before I even knew the pieces existed. I was planning on making the pieces myself, and I still may. I also think ill prolly end up making a new board/table just for these to do them just. Maybe carve a couple runes here and there to really make it fit.
